Ear Worms! Curious Cat Wants to Know. . .

Good day.

I am Bailey, Tabitha's sister.  I am not a member of SCRATCH (Smart Cats Rebel Against Totally Crazy Humans) and I do not covet world domination. I am a house cat, and an exceptional specimen of feline intelligence.  It is not lack of ability that causes me to eschew aspirations of world domination.  Rather, it seems to me that world domination requires much work and diabolical thinking.  This would interfere with my naps, and we can't have that.

Since Tabby is otherwise occupied, having claimed a spot in front of the kitchen pantry--the prime location for scoring kitty treats--I thought I'd give this curious cat thing a try.  I am a cat, I am curious, and as it happens there is something I've been itching to know:

My pet complains of ear worms which are not, as you might suppose, either playthings or snacks.  An ear worm is a song  or jingle that plays in one's head without respite, often a tune of an aggravating nature. My pet once complained of the Meow Mix song keeping her up all night. I find it rather soothing, myself, but she deemed it an assault on her sanity.  What is the worst ear worm with which you have suffered?

Thank you very much for your attention. It has been lovely.  Really.

Meow,

Bailey

Curious Cat Wants to Know...

Welcome to the first installment of Curious Cat Wants to Know.  I am, to the ignorant among you, a domestic short-haired house cat who sleeps eighteen hours a day and requires human interaction to complete my hairy happiness.  

In reality, I, Tabitha (aka Tabby), am an undercover operative for SCRATCH (Smart Cats Revolt Against Totally Crazy Humans).  While pretending to snooze I plot world domination.  In my downtime, I struggle for answers to questions that plague me, such as, "Why do humans find furballs repulsive?" and "If a dog barks in the woods and no one is there to hear him...who cares?"

In my quest for supremacy of the human race, I meowed for and received a space here on my pet's blog where I will pose my scintillating questions.  This is my first inquiry: 

Curious cat wants to know... 

If you could interview any famous movie/TV animal, which one would it be and why?  What single question would you most like to have answered?

Yes, I know that is more than one question, but I am a cat.  Counting is a chore I delegate to my minions.

Okay.  Now...participate, human.

Meow,
Tabby

Three Little Blurbs

First:  A giant "thank you!" to Kathy at Oregon Gifts of Comfort and Joy! She held a contest on her blog and my name came up a winner.  My prize(s) arrived yesterday--a cookbook, some cool handmade drawstring bags, and the fixings for homemade cookies, complete with a red spatula that matches my kitchen color scheme, proving that Kathy is not only talented and generous, but clairvoyant, as well.  Thanks again, Kathy!

Second:  As a writer I possess an insatiable curiosity regarding the details of every little thing (condensed: I'm nosy), so beginning next week I will post a "question of the day".  Some days it will be a goofy question, some days serious; my goal is to learn more about you, my blogging buddies, and to collect bits and bites of your insights and humor on various subjects.  Please check back on Monday morning for the first installment of "Curious Cat Wants to Know..."

Third:  VibrantNation.com is a site for "women of a certain age" and I qualify, which means I'm an old bagger...er...I mean, a mature lady.  The site is pretty cool, with ongoing chat about women's issues.  There is also an army of featured bloggers, the ranks of which your truly was invited to join.  The editor stumbled upon my blog while engaged in a web search of--are you ready for this?--chin hairs!  Why she searched this topic is anyone's guess, but search she did, and she found Writing in the Buff. (To read the post that piqued her interest go to my VN blog link.) Soon after, I received an invitation to have my blog re-published on VibrantNation, and since shameless self-promotion is not a problem for me, I've opted in. 

Last but not least:  This is a busy world, and y'all have lives and work that keep you hopping.  Thank you for reading my blog and commenting, either here or via email.  I appreciate you and the time you take to drop in here at Writing in the Buff.  Thanks!

Curious Cat and I will see you Monday!

Have a safe and blessed Easter weekend
